Velo: Enabling Custom Site Registration

Velo allows you to create a custom site registration form using code.  After creating a custom site registration form, you must enable custom site registration so your visitors will be directed to your custom form.

   2. Click Signup & Login.
   3. Click Member Signup Form (Wix Editor), or Signup (Wix Studio).

   5. Choose the lightbox from the What does it link to? drop-down menu.
   6. Select Advanced Settings and enable the Only allow backend calls for Signup and Login APIs setting. To enable this setting, note that you must complete steps 4 and 5 for the Member Login Form (located under the Login tab in Wix Studio).
